It's strange that, barring some horrible accident, I'll never see my internal organs. I mean, my lungs are with me all the time, they belong to me, and they're keeping me alive, but I don't know what they look like. I know what lungs generally look like, of course, but I wouldn't be able to pick mine out of a lineup. #showerthoughts

capitalism has produced a society that undervalues creative work and forces people to work long hours, leaving little time to pursue creative interests. people attempt to square this circle by pursuing art as a living, but capitalism is only interested in profit and paying workers as little as possible, forcing artists to pursue only commercially viable projects and fight over crumbs at that

L*a*b* color space is nice because it is based upon a sphere in which all colors exist. Each color is encoded as a series of vectors. L* (lightness) can be thought of as your z-axis, a* and b* are your x- and y-axes and determine how red/green or blue/yellow your color is. Whereas HEX codes require you to consider the triplet in relative terms, L*a*b* codes can be "traveled" individually to arrive at the color.
